Checked Gallery Tray and Vanity Plinth with Gilded Scrollwork Accent
ART OF THE RESCUE This heavy bronze alloy tray was discovered as the foundational base for a rare set of heavy glass apothecary jars. Envisioning its independent potential, I reestablished this heavy cast tray to be its own standalone work of art. At The Crafty Hobbit Rehab & Design, I specialize in identifying the hidden elegance of vintage components, and this bronze plinth has been reimagined as a sophisticated gallery-tier accent, curated to bring a sense of history and handcrafted artistry to your modern collection.

ARTISAN DETAILS The beauty of this rescue lies in the "Hand-rendered Harmony" between the industrial weight of the bronze and the delicate elegance of the surface design. The checked pattern and gold-gilt scrollwork across the center are hand applied, creating a regal, "Old World" contrast against the deep, black base finish. This gallery curio provides a stable, luxurious foundation for guest towels, luxury soaps, or a collection of pillar candles.
